Has anyone made Vanguard work? In my experience it's just horrible, kill streaks just don't go up and the attacks seem largely unnecessary, especially in the face of the other two things. Wondering if there's ever a use for it...

I tried it on RK, on cappy I couldn't get KS to go up, on RK it does very slowly but I find no use at all for vanguard, not as much as I do for engineer and officer.

On my cappy in beta I got Vanguard working with just ten points in the tree. Spent the points on increasing Killstreak maximum amount and a few good looking skills. You have to have a max of three Killstreak points before you can use a basic damaging Vanguard skill, which you use on the special Vanguard UI bar. The skills will say how many KS they will consume and you get more KS by, guess what, killing mobs :D It's pretty simple once you get enough points spent in the tree.

Vanguard would be pretty good if turbine ever decides to fix the moving dot on Eb's...
The KS works like "finishing blow" on pvp, so pretty much if you finish the enemy down, you get KS. For minstrels its pretty easy to gain KS as we have atleast 4 multiple target skills to work with, wich deals pretty high damage.

Kinnie champ runs vanguard and adds cant even spawn. In raids, you put vanguard champs where adds spawn and everyone else can stack engineer stuns around sidequests and nothing outside of the big bosses should reach targets.
And mini dps is stupid high atm...
Aglaeka linked a 38k dev on a target...wtf
That doesnt even make sense for a class that can solo full heal the entire fellow
